The overwhelming demand from Malaysian My Days led the concert organisers to add an additional date (6th October) to accommodate more fans. This decision came after a heated “ticketing war” between local and international fans on Twitter, with many urging for more dates or a larger venue to meet the high demand for this highly anticipated event.
